It was first known as The Malayan Association of Certified Public Accountants (MACPA). On July 6, 1964 the Association changed its name to The Malaysian Association of Certified Public Accountants (MACPA). The Association became The Malaysian Institute of Certified Public Accountants (MICPA) on January 29, 2002. MICPA has been developing professional accountants in Malaysia through its professional examinations since 1963. MICPA signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Institute of Chartered Accountants Australia (ICAA) in 2009 marking an important milestone for both bodies in their quest to work together to promote the interest of students, members and the accountancy profession. The MoU provides for mutual advanced entry for candidates into both of the accounting bodies’ professional examinations. Candidates will also qualify for 2 professional memberships – Certified Public Accountant, Malaysia (CPA (M)) and Chartered Accountant, Australia (CA (Aust)).
